Do you have friends who don’t share your political views?

To be fair to myself I have a hard time being friends with anyone that talks too much politics in person. You guys are better people than me if you can talk politics and still be friends.

I'm not much into politics myself, and if someone was super into it or talking about it all the time, I probably wouldnt be super close friends with them anyway because I dont share that similar interest with them.

I dont think you're a horrible person for feeling that way. It is one thing to ditch a friend, and another one completely to just grow apart over time because you 2 are too different.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
